Sofitel hotel at Gatwick chef wins shepherds pie competition

One of the hotels we sell through our partners Holiday Extras, the Sofitel hotel at Gatwick has recently had some exciting news! The executive head chef of the hotel at Gatwick has won the British Shepherds Pie Challenge.
David Woods who competed against 39 other chefs, was judged by the Craft Guild of Chefs and the British Culinary Federation.

To make sure his dish was up to scratch, David organised the Heritage Red King Edward potato crop to be grown in the UK for the first time - and also had the potato harvested for the competition.

David is proud to have come top in the contest and said, "I am over the moon to have won."
